Our Parish Mission Statement: |
He (Jesus) walked here in the same flesh, and gave us the same flesh to be eaten for salvation, but no one eats that flesh unless he first adores it. . . and not only do we not sin by adoring, we do sin by not adoring. -St. Augustine on Psalm 98:9

What is Eucharistic Adoration? Catholics believe that during the Mass which we attend each week (for some of us daily), the priest (during the consecration) speaks these words as he holds the communion host, "...He took bread and gave you thanks. He broke the bread, gave it to his disciples, and said: Take this all of you, and eat it: this is my body which will be given up for you". When the priest says "this my body", it is at that instant when, through the miracle of transubstantiation, the bread and wine which we offer as the bloodless sacrifice to our Lord truly become the Body, Blood , Soul and Divinity of Jesus. It is His true Presence in the form of bread and wine. It is Christ.
"Jesus waits for us in this Sacrament of Love." (Pope John Paul II, Dominicae Canae)
THE ROSARY IS PRAYED 1/2 HOUR BEFORE THE 10:30 AM MASS ON SUNDAYS
